1213 KC3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 1213 KC3 is a metric double row angular contact ball bearing engineered for applications requiring high radial load capacity and precise operation. Featuring a 1:12 tapered bore for secure shaft mounting, this bearing delivers exceptional rigidity and stable performance under demanding conditions. Its double row ball construction enables it to handle significant combined loads while maintaining accuracy. Pre-lubricated and manufactured with chrome steel components and a nylon cage, it offers reliable service in a standard temperature range of -30° to 110°C, making it a robust and durable choice for industrial machinery.
1213 KC3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1213 | Standard bearing designation indicating metric dimensions: 65mm bore, 120mm OD, 23mm width. |
| K | Denotes a tapered bore with a 1:12 ratio for precise interference fit on tapered shafts. |
| C3 | Specifies a greater radial internal clearance than normal (C0), suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where a tight fit is used. |
1213 KC3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row angular contact design provides superior radial stiffness and can accommodate substantial radial loads (dynamic: 7898 lbf, static: 3150 lbf), ensuring stable operation in heavy-duty applications.
- Precision Tapered Bore: The 1:12 taper bore allows for a secure, interference fit on matching shafts, minimizing slippage and enhancing rotational accuracy and system rigidity.
- Optimized Cage & Lubrication: The nylon cage contributes to smooth operation, reduced friction, and is suitable for the bearing's limiting speed of 7,000 rpm. The unit comes pre-lubricated for immediate use and long-term reliability.
- Controlled Internal Clearance: The C3 clearance group is selected for applications involving thermal gradients or tight fits, preventing preload and ensuring consistent performance.
